Sir Ian Blair has worked hard all his life for what is right and is a honourable man. A man was tragically shoot by mistake at a time when all Londoner’s and politicians expected results when a bunch of murderous terrorist needed to be stopped. These events changed things for Sir Ian Blair and people wanted a scape goat. Sir Ian Blair stands for everything that is right and he and all his Police Officers protect us Twenty Four hours a day Seven days a week no matter who we are. Who else do we have to protect us??????? These officers put their lives on the line for us day in and day out. They do it because they are good honourable people that care for all of us. A mistake has happened and you want to Destroy a good man. What sort of message is that giving to the general Public. Our protectors are being treated like common criminals and their jobs should go when Politicians and the Public expected results, this is worse than : bite the hand that feeds you, it is just unfair. I feel sad for Sir Ian Blair because I can see that he has done good things for London and he is truely a worthy and honourable man that cares. We must stop treating good men like this because they are Heroes that deserve more respect than what they are given. Remember that the Police protect us, dont destroy a good man.

Good riddance, that Livingstone crony is as political correct as he is.

Boris,

You really are a fool. This is why policing and politics should never mix, because people like you think they know best and they meddle, when in fact they don’t know best, and it is most likely the opposite, they know very little about policing and the dynamics of policing.

Stick to something your good at, dodging questions, provide stupid answers to genuine questions and generally being the stereo typical politician.

The proof of your question dodging is on YouTube at:

You should probably watch it and then realise why you are so “liked”.

That still leaves the question I raised a while ago, as to Boris’s agenda when he unconditionally said that financiers brought a lot of benefit to London and should not be managed. Well so did slave traders who in their time also had their apologists and sycophants. Even great and forward looking US presidents such as Roosevelt advocated control over the money markets of his time, when the great depression of the 1920s was at its height. Perhaps Boris should look to the broader canvas history and not just short term gain.

Forget the nice words, Boris, it’s simply good riddance at long last to a morally bankrupt, self-serving, highly devious police officer. His news conferences were always to be relied up as an example of the reminder of the link between power and corruption. I am so grateful someone finally ‘took him out’.

To be so cynical must be a hard burden to bear.

I admire Boris’s barefaced cheek in the financial crisis furore of late. Even the financiers most ardent backers and apologists realised it was not prudent to defend them wholeheartedly when things were at their worst. Yet there we had Boris extolling the praises of financiers and how they should not be regualted etc. I wonder what “hat” he was wearing, Mayor of London, old fashioned Tory or shareholder. I believe it was really the latter, and his statement on that topic was that of someone with a vested interest which he’d wrapped up as a moral principle.

Roger Price, well now you know different, Boris is firm in dealing with anyone who is in the wrong job. He seems to be the soul of tact and consideration as he fires you. (which is commendable). I do like it how he considered Sir Ian’s feelings, and only said lovely things about him, that was well done. But if people are discovering that the new Mayor is absolutely no pushover, that is all to the good.

Jaq dearest, I am so glad you are on the mend. I was in Prague this year and a friend of mine had an operation there. In Prague they have the lowest level of MRSA in Europe and the medical care was absolutely fantastic. then she came home and had to have her stitches out here. In 4 weeks she had an infection, because they had not taken out all the stitches properly and an infection resulted. It did not reflect very well on the hospital and she was very ticked off!

What was remarkable about Ian Blair’s going was that he claims he was “sacked” by Mayor Boris Johnson. I thought Boris only sacked women. Perhaps he’s moving into the world of equality at last.
